Dota 2 Reborn: how will data collection be affected? in General Discussion
Sentenza

    People say that when Source 2 Dota 2 will be beta-released there will be 2 clients where dota can be simultaneously played.

    How will this affect Dotabuff's data collection?

        Every Steam game has an application ID.

        Dota 2: 570
        Dota Test Client: 205790
        Dota Source 2: ???

        Right now the data is collected through API from ID 570. My question is: when people will play on both Dota 2 and Dota Source 2 how will Dotabuff handle the data? Will they

        - use only 1 data source
        - use 2 data source showing results separately
        - use 2 data source and combine the results

        Yoshi

          I guess the most valid option would be "- use 2 data source and combine the results".
          But that's just my opinion ofc
